Pine Grove Blues



This bit of film is from rural Louisiana in the mid-70s. It features a great Cajun accordionist, Nathan Abshire playing Pine Grove Blues. Be patient for the first moment or so until they get into the tune...it's well worth it. We often hear blues the same way, with the same instrumentation, styles, looks and so on. Check out what Mr. Abshire does to the blues.
